The last lingering moment-Victory for CHS. After the final whistle, the vic- torious C-Hawks were engulfed by the enthusiastic crowd. Queen Jan Mlkkelson and Master Butch White were chosen by the student body to reign over The Days of Blue and Gold. Their attendants were Kathle Fox, John Eidsness, Julie Dexter, Dave Brenden, Julie Gilbertson, Steve Fodness, Barb Elesland, and Ray Johnson. The fortieth Homecoming began with the traditional Coronation on Thursday night, September 30. Jan was crowned Miss Blue and Gold and Butch received his master's symbols. Following the coronation, a bonfire and pep fest ware held on the tennis court. Friday's activities started off with a pep assembly at noon. Jan gave the C-Hawk football team a pep talk and presented them with their lucky pennies. The student body then dispersed to complete their floats and the parade began. The band, the royalty, class floats, and, for the first time, floats made by businessmen were paraded down the streets. A pep rally down town followed the parade. Preceding the game with Tracy, Queen Jan and her attendants presented the football to the co-captains. A victory dance was held in the school auditorium following the game.

Broadway Comes to CHS: In Once There Was a Princess a home town girl wrote a letter to her Uncle Joe and Aunt Kate telling them she was planning to come for a visit. The whole town was delighted because she had become an Italian princess through marriage. Unaware that the death of her husband had left her poverty stricken, sweet, but dull, the townsfolk spent days in preparation for her arrival. During the confusion the princess arrived and was mistaken for a sewing woman. Only her old boyfriend reoognized her. After she learned of the big celebration, she left knowing that she would not reveal her identity as a pauper. She went to a rich friend in Chicago, borrowed splendid attire, and returned to put on a show as an elaborate princess. After the ball she left again but returned secretly and went to her lover's home. The play ended with the supposition that the young widow and her former boyfriend would marry and begin a new life together. Showing her disapproval of the princess la Aunt Meta, played bv Mary Bong. Kate and Joe Boyd, along with their neighbors, await the arrival of the princess. 44 Mrs.Banks believes in giving her two cents' worth to the school board members. “Molly Morgan” and Bill Whiteside's comments receive a look of disapproval from his mother, Willa. “Once There W as a Princess As the senior play for 1966, John Steinbeck's Molly Morgan was chosen. Molly Morgan had a rural California farm valley, Pastures of Heaven, as its setting. Its inhabitants were middle and lower class farmers, victims of the crushing 1920's draught. Karen Veenis and Jim Thies, Molly Morgan and Bill Whiteside respectively, held title roles. Molly Morgan, being interviewed for a position in the Pastures' school, opened the first scene. Here she met Bill Whiteside for the first time and immediately became attached to him and the village. Clerk of the Board,John Whiteside,played by John Eidsness,informed Molly that she had been accepted to teach in the valley. The play progressed with Molly facing everything rowdy from students to busybody civic workers. Yet through all of these conflicts, a love for Bill Whiteside soon bloomed. In the final act,Molly relived part of her childhood and dreamed of her roving father coming home. As ironic as life is, her dreams became reality with the return of her vagabond father. Her troubles doubled as she feared she would lose her position because of the false impression she'd given about her past. As the play closed,Molly Morgan faced reality and found truth,reminding us all that we must accept the harshness of life, yet stand staunch and walk tall. Everybody loot this way. I only want one picture. Cheryl Redner, Jeanne Roetzel,and Marcella Hur- ley completed the last minute adjustments to welcome all to the banquet.
